Haven't seen any MMFers having fund raisers for Bohannon. I'm not sure he IS one of them.

The last 'outsider', not owned by current city council and their shill MMF, was Josh Laubach. You know how he was taken out by Picard, fire union, others. Agree Mr. Gordon seems to reflect one just wanting to do the job for the citizens. The debates ask every council member same question with all saying same: we need more business, more asphalt, better schools, and a positive attitude. Yawn. ]]> Thu, 22 Oct 2015 09:42:57 +0000 http://www.middletownusa.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6191&PID=46218&title=middletown-council-race#46218 Middletown council race : Groundhog DaySame ?s followed... http://www.middletownusa.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6191&PID=46215&title=middletown-council-race#46215 Author: spiderjohn

Groundhog Day
Same ?s followed by the same answers = electing the same mindset that has landed us where we are today

I think that we need to give this Gordon guy serious consideration]]> Wed, 21 Oct 2015 12:01:48 +0000 http://www.middletownusa.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6191&PID=46215&title=middletown-council-race#46215 Middletown council race : As usual, the questions submitted... http://www.middletownusa.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6191&PID=46214&title=middletown-council-race#46214 Author: VietVet

As usual, the questions submitted will be screened. They will be read only if they cause no controversy nor go against the doctrine set forth by the powers that be in this city. The whole event is rigged and the discussion will center around their dam precious, yet, unsuccessful to date downtown area. As is reality, the discussion will exclude all areas of town outside the downtown area. Infrastructure, roads, job creation and revenue (other than the discussion for more taxes of course) will take a back seat to the central topics like "what can we do for the arts people and the downtown business owners". The city leader world only encompasses the dam downtown area. The rest of the city has been forgotten. The East End growth is not attributed to anything the city leaders have done but rather it has developed due to the city staying out of the private sector's business. That is why it is infinitely more successful than the city meddling downtown area is. You would have thought even the city leaders could have learned a thing or two by now about sticking their nose where it doesn't belong, but I guess that ship has sailed.

We already know what we will get with a Jones incumbent vote. Same old rubber stamping, head bobbing agreement without a question being asked. She has conformed and has been rendered ineffective. Time to try some new blood who will actually question the status quo. Otherwise, it is business as usual and more failed nonsense for years. Need some new blood unless that new blood has the same message as the incumbents have been spewing for years. Doesn't sound like Bohannon is the answer either. Don't know about Moon. Is he an MMF/city theme backer too? If so, we're wasting our time voting for him. Time to change the record. The current one is skipping on the turntable.   ]]> Wed, 21 Oct 2015 11:39:05 +0000 http://www.middletownusa.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6191&PID=46214&title=middletown-council-race#46214 Middletown council race : Updated: 10:01 a.m. Wednesday,... http://www.middletownusa.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6191&PID=46213&title=middletown-council-race#46213 Author: Vivian Moon

It appears ASJ has done a complete reversal from being "for the citizens " to "what ever council wants " JMO]]> Thu, 15 Oct 2015 11:49:10 +0000 http://www.middletownusa.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6191&PID=46200&title=middletown-council-race#46200 Middletown council race : Bohannon is one of "them"... http://www.middletownusa.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6191&PID=46199&title=middletown-council-race#46199 Author: wannaknow

Bohannon is one of "them" so he is a sure winner. They won't let anyone in that thinks different or questions anything. ASJ was brought in line to their way of thinking also so the downtown project will still be number 1 priority, sad

Did he say something like: "Hey, do you know who I am, a city council member in waiting, coming in November"! 'i have the support of the Middletown union that has to occasionally call other neighboring fire departments for support."

The problem is certain areas within city hall is they talk regionalism when its associated with what Middletown needs---leveraging prosperous communities bordering Middletown, and the fire department speaks as if sharing resources and economic efficiency puts residents lives at risk, and general fear mongering.

Donham isn't concerned about section 8 numbers. All they want to do now is control who it is that makes money from the fed payment, and they are friendly to the city. Control of the quid pro quo.

I was in attendance at Fridays Middie game. Hamilton did not do pre sale tickets so the lines were long. I observed and overheard our outstanding candidate Mr Bohannon yelling at Mr Lebo that he should not have to wait in line and complaining about how long it was taking. Very professional Mr Bohannon!!!
